Check screen on rear of foregrip. OLED screen should be on when
marker is turned on.
The anti-chop eye system prevents the marker from firing unless a
ball is present. When the eyes detect a ball the eye symbol on the
screen will have a filled circle in the middle. Never put anything
other than a paintball down the feedneck of the Mini GS. Check that
the bolt is fully returning and if not service you may need to change
bolt tip, small bolt guide o-rings and/or the bolt o-rings. Check that
there is a proper connection between the sensor board and main
board. Check for damage to the main board pins near the tip of the
foregrip.
The trigger indication aarow takes place of the tournament lock
symbolt when the trigger is activated. If the trigger is being pressed
the aarow will point down, and point up if the trigger is released. If
it is not that way, then the trigger may need to be adjusted. See the
"Trigger Adjustments" section earlier in the manual. Check that there
is a proper connection between the sensor board and main board.
Check for damage to the main board pins near the tip of the foregrip.
Remove air source and paintball before disassembling the marker. If
your remove the grip frame you should be able to verify the solenoid
is plugged into the Mini GS sensor board.
Remove the eye cover to check the condition of the ball detents. If
damaged or bent permenantly replace one or both of them.

A bad bolt tip may allow air to esacpe up the feedneck causing
breakage. This symptom is commonly known as "Blowback"

feedneck causing breakage. This symptom is commonly known
as "Blowback". Make sure these o-ring are in good condition and
properly lubricated. Replace if necessary.
When the eyes are dirty the ROF is limited to 8bps to prevent
excessive ball breakage. Clean the eyes as described earlier in the
manual. If the eyes are dirty the eye symbol on the screen with have
a big X in the middle after the marker is fired.
See general maintenance section earlier in the manual to see how to
properly check and lubricate poppet o-ring.
Bolt should stay on bolt guide when turned bolt side down and shak-
en. If bolt falls off replace 3 small bolt guide o-rings. Check bolt and
bolt guide o-rings for damage. Assure these o-rings are properly
lubricated according to general maintenace section of this manual.
